Excellent service. I've just had the pleasure of purchasing my new car from Clarion and it was a very easy and pain free experience. I visited a few times before I settled on my perfect car and the service was always very friendly, nothing was too much trouble. Adam, who dealt with my sale, was very approachable and delivered a 1st class service from start to finish. The car is absolutely lovely and was a fantastic deal. I would definitely recommend.
